Two point charges are placed in vacuum. ...

Two point charges are placed in vacuum. It is observed that electrostatic force applied by one charge on the other is F in magnitude away from each other Now both the charges are placed in medium of relative permitivity `in_(r)` at the same distance (medium extends into infinity). Select correct options

A

Force applied by one charge on the other remains F in magnitude

B

Net electrostatic force experience by each charge is reduced to `(F)/(in_(r))`

C

Force applied by the medium on the charges is `F (1- (1)/(in_(r)))` in magnitude but in opposite direction of F

D

Force applied by the medium on the charges is `F (1- (1)/(in_(r)))` in magnitude but in same direction of F
